A team of the Robotics Student Research Group (at the Faculty of Power and Aeronautical Engineering) came in the top spot at Carolo-Cup@Home. The WUT students and their automated vehicle Selfie were the best in the Basic Cup.

This year’s competition was held as an online event and the Robotics Student Research Group demonstrated their new Selfie model.

“All our work was done at the premises of the Warsaw University of Technology,” say the students. “A video replaced real-time driving along a specially designated course of a track and the presentation of our solutions was delivered online.”

This was the fourth appearance at Carolo-Cup for the Robotics Student Research Group. And the first one to result in a win.

“This makes us extremely happy and motivated to continue to do our work so that we can perform our best in the next event in a new more advanced class,” say the students.

Carolo-Cup is a prestigious event for student teams involved in designing small-scale self-driving cars. Contenders deliver presentations of their designs and compete in practical events (i.e. driving tasks).

The Selfie team at Carolo-Cup@Home were: Mateusz Grudzień, Mateusz Szczygielski, Marek Knosala, Piotr Mikuła, Michał Kiełczykowski, Paweł Kotiuk, Rafał Litka, Mateusz Marczuk, Kacper Mazur, Marta Adamczyk, Daniel Brauła and Tomasz Lis.

The project is funded under the “The Best of the Best! 4.0” Programme with the participation of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education and the European Funds.
